Oh, penalty against Orpik for delay of game.

Wow. Pitt goes on the PK in OT.

Someone's getting fired.

Unless Ottawa mysteriously gets called for a penalty in the next 30 seconds.

Agreed. It was obvious enough for it to be waived off right away and for Toronto to rule rather quickly. His heel moves from a vertical position in relation to the net to a perpendicular position in relation to the net. The puck did not make contact with the skate. His skate clearly moved towards the puck.

That's because he was stopping. There's no rule that says you can't stop at the puck, or even "stop it in." The only thing the rule says is what we all know about a "distinct kicking motion." To me, that involves movement from the knee, or your foot moving at a different rate than the rest of you, not just repositioning your foot.

Otherwise, where's the karma? Huh?!

Probably not in my time.

This is how I feel about it too.

Dumb play by Spezza.

A little more than 30 seconds.

And the "equalizer" call.

Pittsburgh gets a PP right after, who'da thunk it?

That was no worse than what Staal did at the other end of the ice.

[GMRwings1983]

Too many right handed shots. Kind of the opposite of our PP.

Looks like the Pens will get another OT victory on the PP. They must have the record for these.

Wow, my timetable was off, but otherwise, I'm good.

[Rubbel_die_Katz]

omg...hope he will ever return to the ice after this brutal hit...

[seeinred]

Remember when they used to only call really, really obvious penalties in playoff OT? And sometimes they wouldn't even call those?

I miss that.

What a dive by McKee.

That's a disgrace to hockey.

You don't look down at your skate and the puck when you are stopping. He makes a distinct motion with his right skate that is not for the specific act of stopping. He meant to go for the puck. There was no redirection. This isn't soccer. It's the NHL. The kicks aren't going to be giant kickoff like kicks.

I cannot believe that was a penalty. What a disgrace.
